EDITORS COMMENTS
This 17th-century artwork, titled "Duck Sleeping Broken Wheel Farmyard Chicken beyond" is a mesmerizing piece that transports us back in time to the Dutch countryside. Created by Cornelis Saftleven, a renowned Dutch artist from Gorinchem, this drawing showcases his exceptional talent and attention to detail. The composition of the artwork is truly enchanting. In the foreground, we see a peaceful duck soundly asleep next to a broken wheel, evoking a sense of tranquility amidst what seems like an abandoned farmyard. Beyond them, we catch glimpses of chickens roaming freely in the distance, adding depth and intrigue to the scene. Saftleven's masterful use of black and red chalk creates striking contrasts on the gray-brown wash background. The meticulous strokes bring life to every element depicted on this sheet measuring approximately 5 15/16 x 7 1/4 inches (151 x 184 cm). It is fascinating how such intricate details can be captured within such limited space. As we admire this remarkable piece from Liszt Collection, it becomes evident that Saftleven possessed an extraordinary ability to capture everyday scenes with great sensitivity and realism. This artwork serves as a testament not only to his technical skill but also his deep understanding of nature's beauty.
